Bought new baseball glove today, for I agreed to participate in...inter-law-firm softball. I already regret it! But I have a glove that fits my hand for the first time in a long time and look forward to playing catch. With a baseball. |

| Bikini |
[Feb. 14th, 2008|11:09 pm] |
So I've got it in my head that I want to bring a bikini to this wedding we're going to in Palm Springs in April. APRIL. We're staying at a place that has mineral springs and we're staying with some people we know. I'm trying to figure out whether I'm within acceptable bikini range. I don't know why I care. I don't know if it's just me who thinks that there are people who ought not wear bikinis and that I'm one of them. I also feel like I might go tanning which seriously the last thing I thought I'd ever want to do. I think maybe this is "thinking of having a baby in the coming months" acting out.
My question is: do bikinis blind people to physical flaws (like office butt) or does office butt blind people to bikinis? Put it this way: I like my breasts and like showing them off. But is that enough? Why am I talking like this? Bah. Maybe I just get a bikini, stand up straight, keep my shoulers down and back and smile a lot. And go tanning. |

movie meme
1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. Looking them up is cheating, please don't.

1. I'm nostalgic for conversations I had yesterday. I've begun reminiscing events before they even occur. I'm reminiscing this right now. I can't go to the bar because I've already looked back on it in my memory... and I didn't have a good time. vellumblue! Kicking and Screaming
2. Imitate a cat puking.
3. Say car Ram-Rod. majorweather! Super Troopers
4. Look deep, Josh. It's there. It's twelve moves away, but it's there. You've got him.
5. I'll never understand what possessed my mother to put her faith in God's hands, rather than her local geneticist. life_unexamined! Gattaca
6. Jean Louise. Jean Louise, stand up. Your father's passing. beetrix! To Kill a Mockingbird
7. I can't hear you, you're trailing off and did I catch a niner in there? Were you calling from a walkie-talkie?
8. Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash. You've been busted, you lost your qualifications as section leader three times, put in hack twice by me, with a history of high speed passes over five air control towers, and one admiral's daughter. bizetsy! Top Gun
9. As the sound of the playgrounds faded, the despair set in. Very odd, what happens in a world without children's voices. life_unexamined! Children of Men

My Rosie was attacked at the dogpark last night. She's ok but has a torn-up ear and behind the ear. The stupid dog who attacked her didn't have a city license, so we had to give her a booster rabies vaccine even though she just got one in January. She's got a wierd punk (well, drunk punk) head shave going on.
She's on pain medication and antibiotics and is snoozing on the couch next to me. (I'm working from home as what I do can be done via the web and also because my boss loves dogs as much as I do.)
She also has a cone on her head which terrifies the cat which is hilarious.
Can't wait to try to get the other owners to pay the bills. Ugggggh. |

Ode on Melancholy
1.
NO, no, go not to Lethe, neither twist
Wolfs-bane, tight-rooted, for its poisonous wine;
Nor suffer thy pale forehead to be kiss’d
By nightshade, ruby grape of Proserpine;
Make not your rosary of yew-berries,
Nor let the beetle, nor the death-moth be
Your mournful Psyche, nor the downy owl
A partner in your sorrow’s mysteries;
For shade to shade will come too drowsily,
And drown the wakeful anguish of the soul.
2.
But when the melancholy fit shall fall
Sudden from heaven like a weeping cloud,
That fosters the droop-headed flowers all,
And hides the green hill in an April shroud;
Then glut thy sorrow on a morning rose,
Or on the rainbow of the salt sand-wave,
Or on the wealth of globed peonies;
Or if thy mistress some rich anger shows,
Emprison her soft hand, and let her rave,
And feed deep, deep upon her peerless eyes.
3.
She dwells with Beauty—Beauty that must die;
And Joy, whose hand is ever at his lips
Bidding adieu; and aching Pleasure nigh,
Turning to poison while the bee-mouth sips:
Ay, in the very temple of Delight
Veil’d Melancholy has her sovran shrine,
Though seen of none save him whose strenuous tongue
Can burst Joy’s grape against his palate fine;
His soul shall taste the sadness of her might,
And be among her cloudy trophies hung.
-John Keats |

In honor of the new year, I finally tried (after a year of recommendation by husband) a Neti pot for my nose/sinuses/eyes. Husband gave me my own for Christmas b/c the thought of sharing makes me a little sick. Man it was good. I highly recommend, but I won't suggest that you do it every time I do it. |
